Summary
Rookies usually get drafted too high for fantasy football. But there are absolutely exceptions to this rule. *A few* 2025 rookies will probably make a big splash and potential swing leagues. Can we identify them? Well, maybe *we* can't, but often Matt Waldman can. We'll dig into the big rookie names who are getting drafted to be fantasy starters, and the potential values among rookies who are going in later rounds. Plus we'll do a snarkbag, a great listener mixtape, and update Terry McLaurin and Brian Robinson. Guest: Matt Waldman of FootballGuys.com and the Rookie Scouting Portfolio.

| 0:16.1 | Hey, everybody, welcome in. |
| 0:18.2 | My name is Chris, and I'm talking to you loud, but sometimes I talk to you soft. |
| 0:23.9 | Hello there, you yacht possums. Thank you so much for listening. I hope you're doing okay, no matter where you are. |
| 0:29.3 | I hope you're okay. And I hope we can have some fun, some distracting fun together for an hour or so. |
| 0:36.3 | I see you there at the gym. I see you doing some work. I see you |
| 0:40.2 | driving the kids. I see you. Thank you for making my show a part of your day. Special thanks to Greg |
| 0:46.8 | M. He deserves a real shout out. Very long-time listener. He bought something like 20 almanacs for fellow |

| 1:13.0 | I mean, Flacco, uh, you know, it's, he's going to last a little while and then a kid's |
| 1:18.9 | going to take over and it's probably not going to be great for the offense. DeVon A. Chan's |
| 1:23.3 | lower body injury has been declared a calf injury. |
| 1:30.4 | So his toes are safe, but his calf is not. |
| 1:33.5 | So far, no reports that week one is in danger for him. |
| 1:37.7 | Justin Jefferson, I've seen people dropping him down draft boards. |
| 1:41.3 | He's supposed to be just fine and back at practice this week. My opinion is that if Jefferson falls in your first round because of this, take advantage |
